Question

paranoia · Answer

i got the factor (x+2) (x+3) (x^2-4x+6) but idk how to do the rest

satellite73 · Answer

what is "the rest"?

satellite73 · Answer

you have factored it completely, unless you want to introduce complex numbers $$x^2-4x+6$$ as no real zeros, so does not factor

paranoia · Answer

i have to plot it and graph but idk how

satellite73 · Answer

you got two zeros, put them on the graph

paranoia · Answer

i think i need to use the quadratic formula somehow but im rly confused

satellite73 · Answer

no no quadratic formula

satellite73 · Answer

like i said $$x^2-4x+6$$ has no zeros 
graph only crosses the x axis twice
